This episode explores how Generative and Agentic AI are transforming software development, leading to the rise of living software systems. It highlights the limitations of traditional software, often inflexible and full of technical debt, and describes how Generative AI can bridge the gap between human intent and computer operations. The concept of Agentic AI is introduced as a tool for translating user goals into actions within software systems, with Prompt Engineering emphasized as a key skill for directing AI effectively. The episode envisions a future where adaptive, dynamic software systems become the norm, addressing real-time user needs.
